"Confessions of an Autosexual"

[twohadows]

I've been experimenting with backlight lensing. It's a technique I'm developing and is something I discovered about 8 years ago while working with long exposures. Essentially when a subject is backlit by more than one light source or a broad light source, the distance between lights or the width of the light source will determine how thick or thin, how long or short the subject is. I'm currently producing them as silhouettes because I enjoy the monochrome feel to them, though I'm probably going to move to traditional representation and color shortly. Thanks for looking.

Should be fun experimenting with positioning of the backlights to get differing erotic silhouettes, I totally agree about the monochrome, I always find it gives mood and atmosphere.

Same re monochrome: I prefer that to colour portraits

Thanks all. Here's a couple more of my favorites from the last few days.View attachment 2366371View attachment 2366372

Yessss. I have been quietly hoping you would; this is next level interesting. I gave these pieces a like in recognition of my limited understanding. Thanks for sharing this ‘experience.’ That’s what I can ‘see’ an exploration of technique in self recognition. I hope that makes sense.

Thank you so much 42below. I always appreciate input and feedback and yours is among the best; thoughtful and considerate. As to understanding what I'm doing, this is very basic work I'm doing at the moment. It's the kind of work I do when I don't have any concepts to work with where I can go full bore. I'll have to post one or two of those eventually. Thanks again.

This is an interesting take on the diaphanous draping over the model technique.

It hides as much as it reveals.

I've never heard of this technique before. I can imagine it and you can believe that I'm going to give it a shot. Thank you for the reply.

Magnificent....

It seems there is a misunderstanding. I am an artist and this is my art. I will not reply to PMs asking for sexual favors or more photos. If you wish to discuss my art you can do it in this post. Please be respectful.

 

[thetabeta89]

My apologies... no disrespect intended.

The photo of my lips was done with a 40-year-old lens, one that does things no lenses today do. Specifically, it is a true wide angle macro. It does 1:2 @ 28mm. The full body, or nearly full body pic, is a chronochromagraph. A chronochromagraph is a long exposure in which there are multiple lighting events. It's something I developed 7 years ago and continue to develop to this day. For the record I am an artist who specializes in self portraits. Stay tuned for more.

I'm sure everyone is waiting to see the results. Have fun!

Dear Ned ,

Here is my attempt at a diaphanous draping. As you can see, it came out a lot less mysterious than I intended. Still, I am not disappointed. Thank you for the suggestion and I just might continue to work with this concept.

Kindness,

Miss J

Wow that is amazing, the depth and texture of your really full lips and with the light emphasising the lip lines. Awesome

Thanks Robbo. Proper lighting helps a lot I think. Aiming the light across the texture of the lip to accent it. Of course, the lens is key because it offers the proper perspective at the proper distance. Anyway, thanks for the great comment.

 

[gsnowpainter]

Be happy with your first attempt and build on it.

I don't understand the images.
